Survey: IT leaders invest to improve cybersecurity, compliance

Despite corporate investments to improve cybersecurity, compliance and risk mitigation, many companies are still underprepared for strict regulations and cybersecurity attacks.

The 2018 Harvey Nash Group (LON:HVN) /KPMG CIO Survey found that 49% of the responding 3,958 IT leaders cited improved security as a priority. Much of this attention is likely reactionary, as one-third of the responding IT leaders reported a major cybersecurity attack in the prior two years. And while 22% considered themselves well-prepared to defend against an attack, 14% reported that their organization is insufficiently prepared and “exposed to a cyberattack in multiple areas.”
